ABOUT THE MOSQUITO.
Where He Comes From and What
Makes His Bite Uncomfortable.


The long cylindrical eggs of mosquitoes are

Matching the insect passes through its trans
formations and becomes an enemy 10 mans

state, is aquatic, living like fish in ponds,
lakes and stagnant water. Ii is fish-hke In
shape, with the head and adjoining parts
much enlarged, and breathes by means OF a
bunch of hairs radiating from long tuber-
Gle at the end of the body and connecting
with the internal respiratory tubes. 1t re-
mains most of the time after coming from
the egg at the bottom, feeding upon decay
ing matter, and is thus very beneficial as
scayenger. Later it becomes very active,
jerking up and down in the water. aided by
pair of broad caudal leaves. When OBJ

water it is a sure sign it is about TO

crawl on some substance floating on the

short time put out wings and float away.
The males. which may be distinguished by

irritation set up by their slightly barbed

Dan Talmage Sons e. Co.'S Reply to
Harmon g. Cope.
Dan Talmage Sons & Co. have written a
letter to the MORNING NEWS denying that
they are attempting to get up a corner in
rice as stated by Messrs. Harmon & Cope in
an interview last week. The following tele-
gram was received by the MORNING NEWS
last night:
NEW YoRK, June 21.-Referring to the article
in the MORNING NEWS Of June 10, headed "a
Rice Corner Working" we will say that we
endorse every word of the Journal of Conf
nterce in its issue of June Is to wit: The de-
mand falling away, market declined, stock
spelling, and we beg TO ask what season of the
year the so-called festive weavil and plodding
worm carry on their destructive depredations
if not in summer, and whether this season is
exceptional in this respect"
The interview in connection with the article
which involves our name is incorrect in every
essential particular. First, domestic rice is de
clining from causes outside of and quite indie
pendent Of us. Second, we are selling Patna
and other rice only on a true commercial basis
l. e., for profit. Third, we have not bought
any rice in Savannah for over
a month, nor is anyone now author
lied to buy any rice for our
account. Much as we regret it, we are compelled
to say that domestic rice is now too high, which
assertion is conclusively proven by the fact that
its rival the foreign product, is selling not only
in the West, but also in the South even at your
very doors. DAN TALMAGE's Sons & Co.

the Columbus Southern is built as surveyed
it will carry trade from Columbus that she

This is the prediction of Lumpkin man.
Railroad men are still puzzled over the
recent decision of the Interstate Commits
sion relative to what liberties they shall
have under the rules relative to the fourth

are not given comprehensive construction
of the law. There is good deal of interest
in the case against the East Tennessee, Vir-
ginia and Georgia on the charges preferred
by the Western and Atlantic railroad The
officials of the former road say if they were
guilty of any discrimination it was done
through what they believed to be in COM
pliance with the interstate law.

COM. DEMEREs NEW YACHT.
His Disappointment at the Delay In
Shipping the New Racer.

oulpplIlS UQ0 NEW INJECT.
Com. Demere, of the Isle of Hope
Yacht Club, received telegram yesterday
from New York stating that his new yacht
will not be ready on Saturday as promised
The contract he has with Mr.. William
Fletcher, the builder, is that it should be
ready by June IS, and he received notice
that it would be delivered ON the coming
Saturday. He Immediately communicated
with Gen Sorrel and made all arrange
ments for bringing the yacht down on the
City of Augusta, which is the only one of
the steamers that can accommodate her. He
employed two Triggers to be on hand Tues
day next to rig her up at once, and as soon
as he got her sails up be was going to make
up party and give the boat trial.
He has all his crockery ready and waiting
and expected to have everything nicely
slowed away by Wednesday, but his hopes
were dashed to the ground by the telegram
that said she could not be delivered for a
few days. He does not know what few
days mean TO shipbuilder, and is afraid
that he will be cut out of all the July
events. The new yacht has been entered
for the Fourth of July race, and the Com
modore intended to take her out on the club
cruise and in the big race that will be sailed
by the Charleston and Savannah clubs on
July ~, but lie is afraid he will miss them
both. Mr.. Demere is sure, however, that
when she does arrive she will eclipse every
thing in these waters.
She is 81 feet 6 inches long, II feet beam
and 4 feet in depth of hold. The cabin is
large and roomy and fitted with everything
that will add to comfort and convenience
There are four large hunks, and many ac-
commodations that other boats around here
lack. She will be full sloop-rigged, and her
equipments will be complete. She will be
painted white outside and mahogany inside,
with all the stripes of gold and other cdfors
that Will make her pretty and attractive
The Commodore is very impatient to receive
her, as he wishes to show what a really per-
feet yacht is
